Empowering Parents

When children struggle with reading, they're not the only ones who feel frustrated and alone. Parents suffer, too, wondering what they can do and where they can turn for help.

Host Al Roker, of NBC's "The Today Show," tells stories of children from Portland, Oregon, Huntingtown, Maryland, and Ann Arbor, Michigan, as their parents work to find what their kids need to learn how to read.

"Empowering Parents" will help moms and dads everywhere catch reading problems early on, find the right kind of support, and identify good reading instruction.
